Original Psycho Chicken Recipes

GARLIC SOUP

Steps:

• In a large pot over medium heat, cook garlic in butter until brown. Pour in water and bring to a boil. Stir in bouillon granules, reduce heat and simmer a minimum of 20 minutes. Stir in tomatoes, whisk in eggs and season with salt and pepper just before serving.

THE PSYCHO

Steps:

• Pour vodka into an 8 ounce glass. Fill glass nearly to brim with cola. Add absinthe. Do not stir.

ORIGINAL PSYCHO CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
• Clean chicken and remove giblets.
• Hack chicken all over with the tip of a sharp chef's knife to make gashes.
• In a small bowl, mix together thyme, garlic, salt, pepper and vinegar, and slather liberally on chicken, taking care that mixture gets into slits in the meat.
• Place chicken on rack in roasting pan and roast about 2 hours until golden and fragrant, basting every twenty or thirty minutes with a splash of wine and any juices in the pan.
• Now this is the crucial part, which will make or break the entire dish: If this is cooked properly, your chicken should be running with wonderful juices as you carve.
• Dredge each slice of carved meat in those juices before placing on platter-- the juices are loaded with garlic and herb flavor.

SWEET AND SOUR SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat a wok or saucepan over high heat and add the oil. When the oil is hot, add the ginger and garlic. Stir-fry just until fragrant, and then add the juice, vinegar, brown sugar and soy sauce. Bring to a boil and cook until the sugar has dissolved. Stir in the cornstarch and water mixture and cook until thickened, about 1 minute. Stir into any nearly completed stir-fry dish and bring to a boil until the sauce thickens, about 1 minute.
